Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitize: Ensure all your equipment, including containers, spatulas, and heat-safe beakers, are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized.
- Melt Phase A: In a heat-resistant beaker, combine Jojoba Oil, Shea Butter, Beeswax, and Carnauba Wax (if using). Gently heat this mixture using a double boiler or a microwave on low heat until all waxes are completely melted and the mixture is clear. Stir occasionally to ensure even melting.
- Add Colorant: Once Phase A is fully melted and clear, remove it from the heat. Add the Raspberry Red Fat-Soluble Food Colorant drop by drop, starting with a small amount (e.g., 0.1%). Stir thoroughly after each addition until you achieve your desired raspberry red hue. Remember, a little goes a long way with this concentrated colorant.
- Incorporate Phase B: Add Vitamin E Oil and Raspberry Flavor Oil (if using) to the colored oil mixture. Stir gently but thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well dispersed.
- Pour and Cool: Carefully pour the hot liquid balm into your desired lip balm tubes or small jars. Allow them to cool completely at room temperature without disturbing them. As they cool, the balm will solidify.
- Cap and Label: Once fully solid, cap your lip balms and label them.
Recommendations for Use:
- Dye Concentration: The recommended concentration for Raspberry Red Fat-Soluble Food Colorant typically ranges from 0.1% to 0.5% of the total product weight in cosmetics. Always start with the lowest recommended amount and gradually increase to achieve the desired intensity, as product formulations can vary.
- Patch Testing: Before incorporating into a large batch, always perform a small-scale test to ensure the colorant integrates well and provides the desired shade in your specific formula.
- Storage: Store the Raspberry Red Fat-Soluble Food Colorant in its original tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat, to maintain its stability and vibrancy.
- Safety Precautions: Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes in its concentrated form. In case of contact, rinse thoroughly with water. Keep out of reach of children.
- Compatibility: Ensure compatibility with other ingredients in your formulation. While this colorant is highly stable, certain extreme pH levels or active ingredients might affect its performance over time.
